Best online learning platform quiz: questions
Is the quiz result a guarantee?
No. The result is a guide based on the five answers you gave. Always check the current course details on the provider’s own site before enrolling, and check your eligibility for any subsidised or fee-free place rather than assuming it applies to you.
Is a Udemy certificate a recognised qualification?
No. Udemy states that it is not an accredited institution and its certificates of completion cannot be used for formal accreditation. A Udemy course shows initiative and builds practical skills, but it is not an Australian Qualifications Framework qualification.
Can I study a TAFE course fully online?
Many TAFE qualifications are offered online or blended, but some units and qualifications require practical placement or on-campus workshops. Check the delivery details for the specific course and campus before enrolling.
